The Rebellious Rose

Back when Jiang Qingyue staked her identity as a wealthy heiress and fell out with her parents to marry Gu Chenhao, she thought it was a bet on a love that would last a lifetime.

Until Yan Yiwei, forty-three, came through her door with her twenty-two-year-old daughter, Chu Xingyi, whose dazzling beauty nearly blinded everyone.

Everyone was waiting to see Jiang Qingyue leave in disgrace.

But she simply took off her apron, unhurriedly, and let her gaze pass over the man to meet Chu Xingyi's eyes.

The first time Chu Xingyi saw Jiang Qingyue was at her tenth birthday party.

Back then, Jiang Qingyue wore a white dress and stood beside Gu Chenhao, so gentle she seemed like a dream no one dared disturb.

Later, Chu Xingyi clutched the hem of her clothes, eyes red, her voice hoarse:

“My mother wanted a marriage.”

“What I wanted... was always you.”
